11:52:07 <fell> Guest89 follow the related accounts
11:53:46 <fell> There should be an A/R account to which you posted the invoice.
11:54:17 <fell> or A/P for a bill
12:21:31 <jralls> fell: Thanks for adding ChangeLog.2015. I'd though I'd done that, but obviously not.

16:22:04 <Guest89> @fell There is an A/R how do I "follow" the related account?
16:22:04 <gncbot> Guest89: Error: "fell" is not a valid command.
16:23:09 <Guest89> @fell_ There is an A/R how do I "follow" the related account?
16:23:09 <gncbot> Guest89: Error: "fell_" is not a valid command.
16:24:44 <Guest89> fell_ There is an A/R how do I "follow" the related account?
16:34:28 *** fell_ is now known as fell
16:35:14 <warlord> Guest89: what do you mean by "'follow' the related account"?
16:35:24 <fell> If you open it, do you see the txn with your posted invoice?
16:36:23 <fell> And a 2.txn with the payment?
16:36:54 <Guest89> warlord I am not sure, fell responded to a question I had posted with those instructions in the answer.
16:37:01 <Guest89> fell hold on I am going to check
16:41:28 <Guest89> fell I am looking through A/P and I see plenty of payment txn They were made as a single transaction (the account paid from has one entry) but there are perhaps a dozen entries in the A/P one for each posted invoice with a payment associated to it but no indication which invoice it's linked to.
16:44:37 <fell> Warlord, you know this part better and I have to leave in short time.
16:47:20 <Guest89> fell put another way the I have one entry in my checking account: check 1234 which if you look at split covers multiple invoices, A/P has corresponding entries there is actually a Payment entry for each entry (which BTW seems different from how it was displayed by 2.6.3) each entry corresponds to one of the split values. But I don't see a way of linking those entries to the specific invoice. If there are multiple entries for
16:47:20 <Guest89> 60$ I have no idea which invoice maps to which entry.
16:48:29 <warlord> the linking is done via lots
16:48:39 <warlord> I didn't see the orignal question so I'm not sure what you're trying to do.
16:50:10 <warlord> But to see the linking you need to View Lots
16:50:26 <warlord> You can also run a customer report to see the total balance for a customer.
16:51:01 <warlord> Or you can run individual invoice reports and, in each one, you can turn on the "view payments" report option to see what payments have been applied to that invoice.
16:51:29 <warlord> Those are pretty much the only options you have, I'm afraid.
16:52:54 <warlord> Anyways, I'm afraid I need to run now. Hopefully that's the answer to your question. If not, I'll be back in several hours or, more likely, tomorrow morning US/EDT
16:53:21 <Guest89> warlord The original question was as follows: I have an invoice which was marked as paid but shouldn't have been. (As seen in the process payments list). I was trying to figure out which payment was linked to that invoice so that I could correct it but I could find no way of determining that.
16:53:28 <fell> The Question 22:21: I have an invoice that has been marked paid but I can't figure out which transaction paid the invoice.
16:53:47 <Guest89> I did work it out by deleting all payments until I found it but that is cumbersome and there must be a better way.
16:55:52 <Guest89> I know everyone is busy so I can wait but I am hoping to find a solution for the next time. :)
16:55:57 <fell> In Report->Buasiness->Customer Report
16:56:22 <fell> you can select your customer
16:56:38 <fell> see his invoices and payments
16:56:48 <Guest89> I take a look. :)
17:05:21 <Guest89> I'll have to poke around the options a bit but Report->Bus->Vendor doesn't seem to give me the information I need at least the default options. I am looking to link a specific payment with a specific invoice.
17:07:59 *** rubdos has quit IRC
17:09:54 <fell> You should see a list of invoices and payments and can open the related txns.
17:10:26 <fell> Anyway, I need some sleep now.
17:10:31 *** fell is now known as fell_afk
17:10:41 *** nomeata has joined #gnucash
17:20:31 <Guest89> fell I do see the list of invoices and payments and if I click on the bill or payment it opens the invoice or A/P but it doesn't seem to link a specific payment to a bill. For example, in the report, if I click on a payment it opens up the A/P register and highlights the payment. Under that payment are the individual bill that make up the whole payment (represented as lot links). I'd like to click on those and open up the
17:20:32 <Guest89> bill they were applied to.

22:53:36 <fell> Guest89: If you mark the transaction and jump to the A/R or A/P account, you can use Actions->View Lots... to see the associations.
22:59:29 <warlord> Guest89: View Lots would still help you with that.
22:59:52 <warlord> Or you could unpost the invoice and then re-post it, which should delete all bound payments unless you have 'autopay" turned on
23:02:58 <Guest89> fell Thanks, that looks like it gets me what I am looking for.
23:08:07 <Guest89> One additional question while I am looking at the A/P register. In trying to figure out a solution to my first problem, I upgraded from 2.6.3 to 2.6.11. In the earlier version, the A/P register would show a single entry for "payment" then a bunch of Lot Link entries. For example if one payment paid 3 invoices, there would be one payment for the full amount and then individual lot links for each invoice. Now it only shows
23:08:08 <Guest89> 'Payment' and one for each invoice. Did this get changed or is there a configuration option that I missed.
23:26:09 <fell> Puh, I don't know.
23:36:26 <Guest89> fell, NP thanks again for your help. I am sure there is a reason.. :)
23:45:14 <fell> Welcome! :)
